Screwtop Wine Bar

My friends and I came here to celebrate Halloween and it was fantastic! One of my friends and I shared the grilled cheese sliders and empanadas on the happy hour menu, which was wonderful. I also got the pumpkin pie which was very good. The service was quick! Our waitress was great! The ambiance was wonderful. They seated us at a big seat table where we were able to hear each other. I can't wait to go back again. Of particular note, the chocolate lava cake was great too!

The Guide To Imbibe book featured Screwtop Wine Bar (Buy two flights, get them 50% off), so I took my mom and we went to the establishment. It's a bit hidden when looking for it on the street, and it's a bit small on the inside. The servers were very attentive and quick! I got the Virginia wine flight, my mom got the Australian wine flight. It was a very good and varied selection of wines. I didn't know VA has such good wines locally!For food, I got the mahi mahi tacos. Not the best tacos in the world, but not the worst. I wouldn't re-order again. The taco itself needed a lot of seasoning and flavor. The chipotle sauce they gave had a great kick to it. And for dessert, we treated ourselves to a chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream! It was warm, gooey, and reminded me of my childhood! I loved it!

Cute intimate spot with limited seating. We chose to sit outside since it was a beautiful day out. Scanned the QR code on the table for the menu.There's weekday happy hour, 3 - 6, and brunch Saturday and Sunday. There's much more than wine. There's frozen cocktails, beer, sake, as well non-alcoholic options. Food wise, they offer assorted cheeses, meats, sweets, sandwiches, soups, salads, and larger entrees. Since I wasn't hungry, didn't try any food. Wine flights available at a decent price. Decided on a glass of rose from Delaphane. I enjoyed it. Service was great.

Live this place. Every menu item I've tried is fantastic and drinks, both wine and AF drinks are amazing.

Amazing happy hour! $8 wines and food. The server advised us the chicken empanadas were only slightly spicy and this was accurate. I liked the empanada. The grilled cheese is soooo cheesy and delicious. Very good service, I'd go back for sure.

Located in Arlington, street or garage parking are the options for this restaurant. Its located on the side of an apartment complex. It is cute but very very small. I felt very squished and not really able to sit and relax. We had reservations for 11:00am but only two others parties were there. Overall, I felt like it was an average experience, average food, and cramped space. Decent- good pricing though (which I bumped it up a star for). Couldn't really put anything else on the table. Wasn't able to scooch by the next table without asking our table neighbors to move.

After brunch at Ambar Clarendon, my friends and I stopped by Screwtop Wine Bar for wine flights. There were 13 flights to choose from. Both of us chose The Christmas Light Flight, which featured The Prisoner Wine Company Unshackled Sparkling Wine, Goosecross Sauvignon, Fossil Point Grenache Rose, and Klee Pinot Noir. They were all good! I look forward to trying their other flights including Fizz the Season, Rose Bells Are Ringing, and Trim My Tree with Tempranillo.

Perfect spot for wine flights but maybe not food. I made a reservation for a weeknight and the location is quite small so it's definitely something I'd recommend. Our reservation was only for 90 minutes which is fine but I will say it took about 45-50 minutes to get our food so you may be rushing out.I went with a white wine flight and my friend enjoyed the Zinfandel one. The pours were nice and all the wines we tried were good.Now the food is what lost me. We started with the tomato soup grilled cheese app for $13 and the recommended app of the shrimp in the red sauce was so overpriced for 4 shrimp...4 shrimp in a red sauce being 20$ was insane. The grilled cheese was super dry- you could make grilled cheese for a family for 13$ for multiple meals. The fact it wa so expensive so mediocre and took so long made me feel like this is definitely a spot for drinks and maybe a cheeseboard.

I love Screwtop! The summer sipping reds flight is my favorite - it's so unique and delicious. The staff are outstanding and knowledgeable about wine. I've come for a full dinner, as well as for a wine tasting, and loved both experiences. The truffle chips are so tasty, as is the grilled cheese and the cheese and charcuterie board. This is the perfect place for a casual catch up with friends and an extremely approachable way to learn about wine!

Wine bar with a small menu, cocktail list, and beer selection in addition to a ton of different wine options!Only have a few small tables and a bar-counter inside, but have a few tables outside as wellHost a bunch of different events for wine-enthusiastsI came here for dinner with my GF and we were actually really impressed with their food! Everyone here is very friendly as well, and I also enjoyed their seasonal "mulled wine"
